Travel, Dance, Minimalism (Some poetry, some books, some art)

Terry Pratchett

One of my favorite favorite authors just died… Terry Pratchett. Read his Bromeliad trilogy when I was a kid, many multiples of times. He just opened up the world.

“There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What’s up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don’t think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!”

– from The Truth

The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they’ve found it.
